I am writing simply to point out some points of interest as my relation and research on
this family is fairly limited.
Lewis - Louis- Cortright lived with his mother, 2 brothers (Sylvester and Arthur), and a
cousin-(Grace Smith) in Hartford City. His brother Sylvester (Bert) married my
g-g-grandmother Leona Baudouin Dewey when he was 40 - her second marriage his first. She
was 10 years older, born 1863 in Belgium. She moved here with her husband and children in
the late 1890’s her daughter Alice Dewey born 1888 in Jumet Belgium and died in 1965 in
HC. Indiana. I also have Sylvester and Louis mother listed as Melissa -
I also see Alexina as Madaline in the 1930 census--Alexina in the 1920 census ages are
consistent for being the same person - both list age at 32 and 42 and born in Belgium. She
is listed as Alapina (Alexina-- just a misinterpretation I believe) in the 1910 census
